A hot and spicy way to end The Dalton Family series. I enjoyed the crap out of this one. AND on audio it was just delicious per usual. Marni never fails to disappoint with the spice.
I could not get enough of Camden Dalton. He is a dirty talking pro that will melt your panties right off and leave you in a puddle before you even know what happened. Oaklyn is pretty much the opposite of Camden. Where Camden is a playboy, she is a virgin who doesn't have much experience. Oak is also more on the sweet and shy side, where Camden has a wicked smile and bold personality.
The fire and the heat in this book was just too good. Those spicy scenes will be living rent free in my mind for a while to come. We love the teach me moments. On the other hand I love the sweetness this arrangement brought out in Camden. We love a woman who can bring a playboy to his knees.
I love the entire Dalton Family hangouts. They are so fun, and it truly amazes me how successful they all are. 😂

Okay, I truly enjoyed this whole series, but Camden and Oaklyn are an extra kind of special. Sister's best friend vibe, plus the teach me trope was absolutely everything and this pairing was top tier. I loved that there was no third act break-up and, I felt like this made a great conclusion for the series. The spice was incredible as I expected it to be. I also really enjoyed the development and progression of their relationship. It just felt so natural for them to be together and it's probably one of the reasons it's my favorite in the series. They were both around the same age which was nice too. Reading these books for sure made me want to read more from Marni! Loved this one a lot.

I wanted to like this. I really did, but the hero was horrible from the get-go, i also didn't vibe with the FMC that much. Her personality wasn't really appealing, and i didn't buy the innocent virginal act, so i didn't like her much either. Also, the rushing/instalove after 5 dates by the end just... it didn't work for me.
I feel like I might have liked some of the other books from this series, but this one just wasn't for me.

Holy hotness! What a deliciously steamy and forbidden finale to the tantalizing and spicy Dalton Brother series! Marni Mann sets the pages on fire in this addictive best friend's brother story- with all the steamy "lessons" galore!
I was so excited for Camden and Oaklyn's story. The experienced guy teaching the virginal girl is kind of a catnip trope for me- and Marni Mann did not disappoint. No-strings in romances bachelor Camden starts his mingling with his twin sister's BFF Oaklyn and HOLY MOLY someone get me a cold shower. This series has just been so damn sexy- a totally erotic buffet, and this one is next level.
And even with the spice, what I love is how Marni infuses so much heart in the romance and how charming she makes her characters. I especially loved Oaklyn- she may be innocent but she's self-assured and strong as a heroine. She's endearing and likable- just the right dash of vulnerability and steel. She's got a big loving heart. And Camden is certainly the consumate bachelor- and I LOVED watching him fall for the last person he's allowed to fall for, a secret from his other half, twin sister Hannah. And he goes into it trying to keep from hearting both Hannah and sweet Oaklyn.
And yes, these two tear up the sheets, but their emotional chemistry is just as captivating. They have a great friendship and natural connection- and I loved how their pre-existing friendly relationship added a new dynamic to this story. And I loved their banter! And ooooh those lessons- well Camden melts hearts AND panties.
This is such a fun and yummy story- an easy, fast-paced, one sit read that I just flew right through. And a great finale for the Dalton brood!

Camden Dalton is sex on a stick . Drop dead gorgeous, dirty as sin + an eternal bachelor, Camden doesn’t need anything more in life . Until his twin sister’s, best friend asks him if he will take her virginity . Unsure of what to do with this intriguing offer, Camden gives her an ultimatum . If in one year, her 25th birthday, she is still a virgin, he will take her virginity . BUT it will done over five lessons . Five lessons for him to teach her everything he knows sexually but also five lessons for her to learn not to get attached to the wrong type of guys . But will he be able to make it out without any lines being permanently blurred ?
Oaklyn Rose knows exactly what she wants in a man but just can’t seem to find him . Not wanting to hand her virginity over to just anyone, Oaklyn comes up with a plan that she knows will be foolproof . All she needs to do is convince her best friends, twin brother to take her virginity, show her some pointers on how to make a man feel good + to lie to his sister about everything they are doing behind her back . Simple . Except for the fact that she has been in love with Camden since she was twelve years old + she knows her heart already belongs to him .
HOLY MOTHER OF NATURE THIS BOOK WAS SPICY ! Hands down one of the spiciest books I have ever read + the dirty talking was off the charts . A book that will make you blush head to toe . I loved the chemistry between Camden + Oaklyn . Even when they weren’t together, it seemed like they were inevitably always drawn back to each other .
This is the fifth book in The Dalton Family series but can be read as a stand-alone . I do recommend reading the series in order because you understand the friend group + dynamics more . This forbidden romance was my absolute favorite out of the whole series . I can’t wait to see what Marni has in store for us with her next series !

This is the 2nd 5 star book in the series for me, but most definitely my favorite, I think. Read in less than 24 hours (and if I had the time, I would have read it in 1 sitting). I wasn't sure how I felt about Camden while reading the other books, but oh my goodness, he's my fave! So spicy, and accurate with the feelings and experiences, which I appreciate. Loved this one for sure! I hate its the end of the series. The Dalton family is one of my favorite series.
